Gerne wieder!
Pros:

Die Bar war super, ebenso war es recht familiär. Die Aussttatung war modern und schick, perfekt für Paare. Ebenso die Kostenlose Parkplätze sowie das freundliche und zuvorkommende Art des Personals.

Fantastisch !
Pros:

Alles was buiten categorie. Het bed, de badkamer... de accomodatie was van superkwaliteit ! De locatie van het hotel (op loopafstand van centrum Edinburgh) was gewoonweg top.

Nice
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The welcome experience was not good. You have to go into the bar area to check in, which felt very strange. There was no Wi-Fi in the hotel, which was extremely disappointing. The floors and carpets were very dirty, and the cleaning was not properly done. There were even crumbs left on the nightstand.

Pros:

Morningside is a fabulous part of Edinburgh with unique shops and dining experiences. The rooms in the Lane Hotel are all upstairs so you must be able to navigate stairs, although Matthew was very sweet to take up our bags. The Canny Man is a glorious pub attached to the hotel where you can get food and drink in an amazing atmosphere. Every employee was friendly and accommodating. Located on a main thoroughfare with public transit to everywhere you'd want to go. I would definitely pick this hotel again if I return to Edinburgh.

Cons:

Härlig långhelg i Edinburgh
Pros:

Personalen var mån om att man hade det bra. Bekväm och skön säng, bra frukost, nytt och fräscht

Cons:

Vi fick bara en nyckel, det var lite stökigt när vi kom till hotellet på olika tider.
